Strange case of Geographic Tongue??

Strange case of Geographic Tongue??

Hi, I have geogrpahic tongue on the back of my tongue, the typical one with deluded
papillae-less patches, but recently I noticed that in the ti and front of my tongue, I get these
patches of reddened papillae, they look kinda enlarged sometimes, but I don't lose the
papillae in these patches in the front of my tongue, just in the ones in the back.
Is thie really like a special case of GT?
I posted a question regarding this doubt in another forum of the uni. of Ogio, and the
doctor there told me it sounds like the GT in the front of my tongue is not progressng enough
to delude the taste papillae, but I don't know what to think.
These red patches in the front move and disappear in hours or days,and don't really
hurt, just a little tingly feeling, just like normal GT patches. They just look like clusters of red
papillae, sometimes with the white edges.

I would appreciate very much your answers.
Thank you very much,
Roman
